Revision 3 REVISED SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PERFORMANCE PLAN PART 2 - UNIT 1 PROGRAMS EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

The Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN) consists of two units each rated at 1148 MH net electrical output.

These units were voluntarily shut down by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in August 1985 because of questions about the environmental qualification of electrical equipment. Additional questions and concerns were subsequently raised about the overall adequacy of TVA's nuclear program and Sequoyah remained shut down until adequate corrective actions were defined to address the root causes of TVA's nuclear program problems. On September 17, 1985, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requested, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(f), that TVA submit information regarding its plans for correcting Sequoyah problems and for correcting problems in the overall management of its nuclear program.

The NRC also requested that this information be submitted before TVA restarted Sequoyah.

In response to this request, TVA prepared a Corporate Nuclear Performance Plan (CNPP) which identified the root causes of the problems in the management of TVA's nuclear program and described TVA's plans for correcting those problems.

Additionally, TVA prepared a Sequoyah Nuclear Performance Plan (SNPP) which identified the root causes of problems specific 111y related to Sequoyah, plans for correcting these problems, and responded to the NRC's request for Sequoyah-specific information.

The SNPP identifies the root causes of problems specifically related to

^g Sequoyah and the plans for correcting those problems. Part 1 of the SNPP is (V

specifically directed to the programs associated with restart of unit 2.

Part 2 of the SHPP is directed to the unit I restart programs that are different from unit 2.

The Sequoyah unit I restart programs' content, scope and schedule considered the experience gained from the unit 2 restart effort and the completion of the common-unit work necessary for unit 2 restart.

An evaluation of the unit 2 programs described in Part 1 of this volume and the correspondence between TVA and NRC was performed to determine their applicability to unit 1.

This evaluation concluded that 40 of the 44 unit 1 programs are identical to the unit 2 programs.

The remaining four unit 1 programs are different either because of lessons learned from unit 2 or they are unique to unit i restart.

Since most of the programs associated with unit 2 are the same for unit I and have been reviewed and approved by the NRC, Part 2 of the SNPP is only 1

directed to the four unit I programs that are different from unit 2.

O ES-1

Revision 3 1.

INTRODUCTION 1.0 PURPOSE Since submission of the original Sequoyah Nuclear Performance Plan (SNPP), TVA has significantly changed its nuclear management, highlighted by the contract with Mr. Steven A. White to be the Manager of Nuclear Power. Mr. White, the primary motivating force behind TVA's program improvements, directed a reevaluation of TVA's approach for correcting the problems that have arisen.

The results of the reevaluation for Sequoyah were addressed in revision 1 to the SNPP (reference 1).

The revised plan completely superseded and replaced the SNPP submitted on November 1,1985. Revision 2 to the SNPP was submitted on July 2, 1987 to correct editorial errors and update Part 1 Section IV, Summary of Sequoyah Activities (reference 2).

This revision to the SNPP provides a new Part 2 which covers the unit i restart programs that are different from the unit 2 restart programs described in Part 1.

This revised SNPP in combination with the most recent revision of the CNPP describes the measures which TVA is taking to improve its nuclear program for Sequoyah.

It identifies actions to correct the problems which have impacted management and operation of Sequoyah.

The SNPP not only responds to the NRC's specific request (reference

3) for information under 10 CFR 50.54(f) on TVA's Sequoyah specific activities but also presents an integrated plan for addressing the NRC's general interest in the safe operation of the plant.

2.0 PLAN ARRANGEMENT The SNPP is arranged into two major parts.

Part 1 - which addresses the unit 2 programs required for restart.

Part 2 - which addresses the four unit I restart programs that are different from the unit 2 programs as identified in R. L. Gridley's letter to NRC dated March 31, 1988 (reference 4).

Part 2 is divided into five major sections.

This introductory section (Section I -

Introduction) discusses the purpose of Part 2 of the SNPP, the background of SQN operation, and outlines TVA's approach to identifying unit I restart program differences.

The second section (Section II - Civil Engineering Program) describes the activities that comprise the civil engineering program for unit 1.

The third major section (Section III - Design Baseline and Verification Program) addresses the design baseline and verification program (DBVP) for unit 1.

The fourth section (Section IV - Restart Activities List) addresses the identification and tracking of the important activities ongoing at Sequoyah including both long-term and those required for plant restart.

This section includes a discussion of the methodology used to identify restart items that are applicable to Sequoyah pd unit 1 including commitments both internal to TVA and those made by I-1

Revision 3 TVA to the NRC. The Restart Activities List also classifies each item on it as restart or non-restart and it reports the current

(

j status of each item.

The fifth section (Section V - Operational Readiness Program) describes the program which will provide the Site 01 rector with maagement review to ensure that activities, programs, and commitments required for restart are completed.

The Operational Readiness Program will provide information on which the Site Director will recommend to the Manager of Nuclear Power that unit 1 is ready for restart.

A references section following Section V includes a composite listing of the references used in Part 2 of the SNPP.

3.0 BACKGROUND

The Sequoyah Nuclear Plant is a two-unit nuclear power plant located approximately 7.5 miles northeast of the city limits of Chattanooga in Hamilton County, Tennessee.

Each of the two identical units employs a pressurized water reactor nuclear steam supply system with four coolant loops furnished by Westinghouse Electric Corporation.

The balance of plant has been designed, built, and is operated by TVA.

Each of the two reactor cores is rated at 3411 MHt and each unit is rated at 1148 MH net electrical output.

/

Unit 1 began commercial operation on July 1, 1981, and unit 2 began

(]/

comme clal operation on June 1,1982.

Because of questions about the environmental qualification of electrical equipment at Sequoyah, TVA voluntarily shutdown unit 2 on August 21, 1985, and unit 1 on August 22, 1985.

These and other events, which reflected adversely upon the quality of performance of TVA's nuclear activities, led to a thorough evaluation of the TVA nuclear program, including its management and operation of Sequoyah.

On September 17, 1985, NRC issued a Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) report of TVA's nuclear activities (enclosure 1 to reference 3).

This report identified a number of weaknesses in the conduct of TVA's nuclear activities. Based upon the conclusions in this report and the history of TVA's nuclear activities, NRC concluded that TVA had "demonstrated ineffective management of its nuclear program." NRC requested that TVA develop corrective action for the "programmatic and management deficiencies that have contributed to the continued poor direction and control of nuclear activities, and for the Sequoyah specific deficiencies that have contributed to weaknesses in the areas of maintenance and quality assurance and administrative controls affecting quality."

Although the NRC recognized that TVA had already taken some actions to address these issues, the NRC requested pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(f) that TVA specify in writing its corrective act'>ns before restart.

7 Revision 3 4.0 OUTLINE OF TVA'S APPROACK TO IDENTIFYING UNIT 1 RESTART PROGRAM DIFFERENCES (D

V In order to develop the Sequoyah unit I restart program, an evaluation of the unit 2 programs identified in Part 1 of the SNPP and the correspondence between TVA and NRC was performed.

Each unit 2 program was evaluated by the manager responsible for the implementation of that program.

These evaluations concluded that 40 of the 44 unit 1 programs are identical to the unit 2 programs and therefore have been reviewed and approved by the staff with the issuance of the unit 2 Restart Safety Evaluation Report (reference 5).

The remaining four programs are different because of lessons learned from unit 2 or they are unique to unit 1.

Table i shows the results of these evaluations.

The four unit I programs that are different from unit 2 are:

the Civil Engineering Program; the Design Baseline and Verification Program; the Restart Activities List; and the Operation &l Readiness Program.

A brief description of the differences between units 1 and 2 for these four programs is provided below.

4.1 Civil Engineering Program The Civil Engineering Program for unit 1 is essentially the same as unit 2's program except a final report will be submitted on Inspection and Enforcement (IE)Bulletin 79-14 for unit 1.

4.2 Design Baseline and Verification Program The unit 1 DBVP is the same as the program for unit 2 with the following two exceptions:

the Unit 1 DBVP takes credit for reviews already done under the unit 2 program; and responsibility for the review of testing has been transferred to TVA's restart test program.

Open Items (TROI) system rather than the Sequoyah Activities List (SAL) used for unit 2.

4.4 Operational Readiness Program l

The unit 1 program focuses on activity closure rather than on program and management system evaluations, which were performed for unit 2 restart.

The unit I program will be accomplished by implementation of a startup prerequisite checklist similar to that used for unit 2 restart.

However, the Unit 1 prerequisite checklist will also address the adequacy of staff support for two-unit operation.

Revision 3 II. CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM Several activities are included in what is called the civil engineering program for unit 1.

Those activities include: preparation and submittal of the response to IE Bulletin 79-14 for unit 1; verification of alternate analysis calculations; regeneration of missing rigorous analysis pipe support calculations; and restart resolution of 140 Condition Adverse to Quality Reports (CAQRs), 40 Engineering Change Notices (ECNs), several audit findings, and employee concerns.

The unit I restart program is essentially the same as unit 2 except a final report will be submitted on IE Bulletin 79-14 for unit 1.

Unit I work items have been planned and scheduled to: perform necessary functional verification walkdowns; evaluate and disposition outstanding restart documentation; regenerate calculations as necessary; issue required pipe support modifications to meet design bases; and field-complete pipe support modifications required by interim pipe support design criteria.

The total scope for this program will consist of approximately 25,000 feet of piping and 2800 pipe supports that have been rigorously analyzed.

This program, which began September 1987, will be completed before restart of unit 1.

Revision 3 III. DESIGN BASELINE AND VERIFICATION PROGRAM O

The Sequoyah Design Baseline and Verification Program (D8VP) has been U

established to assess the adequacy of past modification work and correct deficiencies. This program has been designed to address the design control issues by:

Verifying and establishing the plant functional configuration.

Reconstructing the design basis.

Reviewing and evaluating modifications since Operating License (OL) issuance against the design basis.

Performing the modifications developed from this review and evaluation.

1.0 PROGRAM SCOPE The implementation of this program has been structured into two phases. The pre-restart phase carries out the program for the systems required to mitigate final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR)

Chapter 15 accidents and provide for safe shutdown.

The systems or portions of systems covered by the pre-restart program are listed in Table 2.

These system boundaries were selected by a determination of what systems and portions of systems are required to mitigate FSAR Chapter 15 design basis accidents and O

provide for safe shutdown.

The set of systems and/or portions of systems that mitigate these events were identified by marked prints of the system flow diagrams, electrical single line diagrams, and control diagrams.

The results of this effort are documented in a calculation package.

The post-restart phase will continue the engineering activities to complete engineering documentation describing the functional as-constructed configurations.

The post-restart phase will extend the program to system corrections not required for restart, and to other safety-related i

systems.

2.0 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION (PHASE I)

This program is divided into the four major areas discussed below.

Individual procedures were prepared for the implementation of this program. Upon issuance of these procedures, personnel were trained in their areas of responsibility.

O III-1

Revision 3 Design Criteria / Design Basis n

Design basis documents for the systems or portions of the systems covered by the pre-restart phase were developed.

v Procedures have been developed to define the licensing commitments review process and contro! preparation of design criterla/ design basis documents.

These procedures were used to perform the licensing review process and prepare / compile design basis documentation.

System Walkdown/ Test The drawings reviewed were the control room drawings (i.e.,

flow diagrams, single line drawings, and control diagrams) depicting the systems listed in Table 2.

Procedures were developed for system walkdowns to verify the configuration for process flow for mechanical and fluid systems.

Instrumentation and control (I&C) systems include confirmation by walkdown/ tests that the control device functions and that its associated root valve is verified.

Functional test requirements are provided by the DBVP to TVA's Restart Test Program.

Evaluation of ECNs and Other Changes ECNs and other system changes (e.g., Nonconformance Reports (NCRs)/Significant Condition Reports (SCRs), Temporary Alteration Control Forms (TACFs), local Design Change Requests (LDCRs), and Field Change Requests (FCRs)] initiated since OL issuance wera evaluated against the design bases.

Procedures are developed for the control of these processes.

Modification ECNs were categorized into three groups:

(1) fully implemented, (2) partially implemented, and (3) unimplemented.

The evaluation of other change documentation, such as dispositioned NCRs/SCRs, TACFs, LDCRs, and FCRs, ensures that appropriate engineering evaluation has been performed, that appropriate corrective actions have been taken, and that related documentation is in order.

This includes an evaluation of SCRs/NCRs which were transferred to and tracked by the Office of Nuclear Power (ONP).

System Evaluations and Corrective Actions The walkdown test data and design and modification documentation were compared to the licensing committrents and the design basis for an engineering evaluation.

The results O

III-2

Revision 3 of previous verification and data gathering activities of this program were used to evaluate whether the modifications since p

OL, to selected systems or portions of systems covered by this d

program, fulfill their functional design requirements.

The partially implemented and unimplemented ECNs were evaluated to determine if their implementation is required for restart.

i The evaluation process that was performed during the pre-restart phase determined if the system modifications have degraded the system's ability to perform its safety function as required to mitigate events described in FSAR Chapter 15 and meet the design basis.

This evaluation was based upon documented engineering analysis.

Actions required to resolve discrepancies identified in the system evaluation and/or technical review are being implemented.

This may require modification to the plant configuration with corresponding drawing changes, design basis document changes, and/or licensing commitment changes.

Corrective actions are being reviewed for potential impact on design inputs.

Necessary modifications are being made to the original flow diagrams, single line drawings, and control diagrams located in the control room.

The following items will be issued for each system or portion thereof:

- Design Criteria

- System Evaluation Report

- Unreviewed Safety Question Determination (USQO) for pre-restart modifications 3.0 INDEPENDENT REVIEW The Division of Nuclear Engineering's (DNE's) Engineering Assurance is performing an independent oversight review of the DBVP.

This review provides added assurance that the engineering activitier associated with the program are conducted in a technically adequate manner and in accordance with the written procedures prepared specifically for this effort.

The independent team of experienced technical personnel is monitoring, on a sample basis, the OBVP as the project completes its document preparation, document revisions, and/or review. This review will:

Revision 3 IV. RESTART ACTIVITIES LIST O

O The identification and tracking of unit I restart items are accomplished by the use of the ONP's permanent tracking system--tracking and reporting of open items (TROI) rather than the Sequoyah Activities List (SAL) used for unit 2.

TROI was selected for unit I restart item tracking because it is a controlled data base, provides improved accessibility to line organizations, and provides increased ability to sort and display information. Commitments are tracked by TVA on its corporate commitment tracking system (CCTS).

The disposition and verification of closure of restart items is accomplishad through our upgraded system of procedures used for unit operation.

1.0 METHODOLOGY USED TO IDENTIFY RESTART ITEMS The unit I restart list was developed by an item-by-item review of completed and open unit 2 and common restart activities and of open unit 1 issues.

Standard practics SQA203 "Use of TROI for Unit 1 Restart Action List", was issued to specify the requirements for maintaining and controlling the unit I restart list.

The common criteria used to guide the line organizations in raising potential restart issues and making recommendations to management has been the same restart criteria used for unit 2.

Standard Practice SQA203 requires each SQN unit 1 potential restart item to be evaluated against this criteria to determine whether associated corrective action is required to be completed before restart.

The Site Director has designated either the Restart Director or Assistant to the Site Director to evaluate proposed new activities s

and ascertain that these activities meet the restart criteria.

2.0 RESTART ITEM CLOSURE PROCESS Standard practice SQA203 specifies that existing site procedures will be used to ensure that unit I restart items are dispositioned and closed in a verifiable manner.

Each site manager is responsible for: maintaining the status of his restart items through closure; adding new actions as necessary to resolve an open restart item as the issue evolves; and ensuring that a specific discipline and manager within his organization is assigned responsibility for obtaining timely closure of open restart items.

An item is considered closed for restart when all corrective actions that have been specified to be completed before restart are field completed, documented, and verified as appropriate.

3.0 COORDINATION OF SEQUOYAH UNIT 1 RESTART ACTIVITIES The Site Director has identified a unit 1 Restart Director who is responsible for coordinating the unit I restart effort.

The unit 1 Restart Director reports directly to the Site Director and has responsibility and authority to establish specific schedule O

IV-1 1

]

Revision 3 priorities, to ensure that line managers are coordinating their O

activities to complete all restart actions, to establish site goals as appropriate to achieve a safe and timely restart, to call and conduct restart schedule status meetings, and to ensure performance of the individual groups and integrated work activities. This position has been established in order to ensure that all restart requirements are properly completed in an integrated fashion and on a timely basis.

Through the activities of the unit 1 Restart Director, the Site Director is provided with an early signal of potential problem areas and is able to take prompt action.

O 4

i IV-2

Revision 3 V.

OPERATIONAL READINESS PROGRAM O

The SCN unit 1 operational readiness program will require that line kJ managers utilize a systematic process for the identification and certification of closure of individual restart items for which they are responsible. The unit 1 program will focus on activity closure rather than on program and management system evaluations, which were performed for unit 2 restart.

The unit 1 program will be accomplished by imp!ementation of a startup prerequisite checklist similar to that used for unit 2 restart. However, the unit 1 prerequisite checklist will aise address the adequacy of staff support for two-unit operation.

Also, unit 2 lessons learned and operations experience will provide additional means to ensure that unit 1 plant and personnel are prepared for restart and operation.

The startup prerequisite checklist will be made a part of the Restart Test Instruction (RTI), "Haster Test Sequence", for unit 1.

The Site Director will use the signed-off startup prerequisite checklist as well as other status reviews and inputs to make his recommendation for SQN unit I restart to the Hanager, ONP.

The Manager, ONP, will approve restart of SQN unit 1 only when he is satisfied that all pr?parations for restart have been satisfactorily completed.
